When one object travels to another time where that same object also exists, then two of the exact same object occupy the same time. The popular theory is that one of the paradox duplicates is doomed to destruction as a result of the universe attempting to correct this violation of the reality matrix of existence. More pressing is the belief that, were the duplicates to come in contact with one another, it would violate the very basic law of physics that 'no two objects can occupy the same space at the same time', and, thus, unmake the universe.
"That's why i didn't want us to meet, Fry. We're paradox duplicates. The more we stayed away from each other, the better chance we had of staying alive. I guess I was wrong...(cough)"

Get the Feeling paradox mug.NBA paradox references the paradoxical notion that any disparity in a organization's racial composition is the result of systemic racism and/or discriminatory practices. This is the underlying justification for affirmative action and selective, race-based scholarships, grants ect.. An example would be: Because there are proportionally less African American Neurosurgeons than White Neurosurgeons, there must be some form of discrimination preventing African Americans from becoming Neurosurgeons, and to correct this injustice, we should target and support recruiting-efforts for African American Neurosurgeons. The paradox is to look at organizations that are disproportionately African American, such as the NBA. No one believes that discrimination prevents Whites from playing in the NBA, and most conclude that the disparity is due to African Americans having greater skill in this area. But accepting this idea is to also accept that disparities across race can be due to legitimate differences in skill, which are race-dependent. This conflicts with the dogma described above and is a paradox. This paradox is also sometimes used to reference the fact that most of those calling for change in racial-disparities through the active discrimination of other races, are usually serving their own race or will not be affected by the discrimination.
The NBA paradox tells us why constantly trying to socially-correct racial disparities can lead to real discrimination.

Get the NBA paradox mug.The Bootstrap Paradox is a theoretical paradox of time travel that occurs when an object or piece of information sent back in time becomes trapped within an infinite cause-effect loop in which the item no longer has a discernible point of origin, and is said to be “uncaused” or “self-created”.
A time traveller who was a big fan of Beethoven goes back in time to 18th century Germany to search for Beethoven for an autograph. Upon reaching the destination, the time traveller cannot find Beethoven anywhere, not even Beethoven's family have heard of him. Not being able to bear the thought of a world without Beethoven's music, the time traveller coincidently has all of Beethoven's sheet music, he copies it up and publishes it. The time traveller has become Beethoven and the timeline resumes as usual, this is what we call a Bootstrap Paradox.
